Mmm, cilantro-flavored body wash... how... tingly!
Well, all I can find are a few secondary/tertiary sources that say the
leaves are used in soups and salads (they all say basically that- perhaps
they are quoting Gerard?) and then go on in great detail about the
seeds/fruit.    Ann Hagen just mentions it as on the list of plants for St.
Gall.  I'm with Lainie about the use of the term 'fresh corander' or
Coriandrum.
